Today marks 10 years since Chestermere lost Craig Lawrence in a tragic vehicle accident. Craig worked at the Town as the Director of Planning and Development and served on the volunteer fire department for the community. This morning, Chestermere Fire Services (CFS) honoured Craig by setting off tones at Station 116. 13 members of CFS then participated in a bell ringing, a moment of silence, a reading about Craig and finally a gruelling first annual memorial workout. Gone but never forgotten.
